Er body in da club raisin' kids now

I believe gay or lesbian parents can be just as good, or looked at differently, just as bad, as traditional parents. First of all, being a good parent has nothing to do with sexual orientation. I've heard of gay parents that were really great at parenting, and I've also heard of traditional parents that didn't have a clue how to raise children. Which brings me to my second point; it's all about the love, baby. Whether gay, lesbian, or straight, it all depends on the deep, caring relationship that exists between the guardians and the child. If that's not there, you can't be a good parent, easy as that. Communication is also a vital part of parenting. Children and their guardians have to be on the same page at all times. It may make the child mad, but in the end it's beneficial and in the best interests of the child. These are just some examples of good parenting. It really doesn't matter what orientation the guardian is, as long as certain aspects of raising a child are met, as listed above.
However, even if the relationship between child and adult is great, that doesn't mean it's a happy ending after all. I'm sure at some point, the child will be asked about their mother and father, as the heteronormative society takes hold. A gay or lesbian couples' child's answers may shock people and make them think differently about them. It's not fair, but at some point it will become an awkward subject for the child, but it's just a part of life.

Question:
1) What might be harder for a child that has gay or lesbian parents: not relating to the parents about values, or having it be known in school about that child's parents?

2) Is there a substantial difference in parenting styles between lesbian and gay parents? How might this affect the child's development?
